DW: The Dark Husband

Hey Guys,

welcome to the 106th Big Finish Main Range Adventure ‘The Dark Husband’ with the 7th Doctor and his companions Ace and Hex. It plays at sometime at another planet named Tuin. Ace is wanting a holiday and do something nice. Of course it doesn’t work out.

Let’s take a break

What can go wrong when you want a holiday? Hex finds broshure and the decide to visited the festival of Twin Moons of Tuin. Of course lands at the time when something bad had happened. They found a graveyard and no festival. Just this part makes me love the story. I mentioned it a lot that I wasn’t a fan of Ace in the series. But when I started listing to her stories with Hex, that really changed. She grows in all the stories and it is great to see her developement. Also I love the way these three characters interact with each other. It is always fun to listen to their banter.

Let’s end the war

So really fast the story developed from let’s take a break to let’s end the war. Apparently there are two race that are at war forever. They have the Festival ones a year. It is a little bit like the Christmas wonder. Every they make this festival they celebrate together and just stop the war for this time and after they just go back to it. To make this even more special you can stop the war by a marriage and of the Doctor jumps to the chance to end this but he doesn’t what he got into. It’s a typical we make up as we go story.

Dark Husband and Shining Wife

The atmosphere of the story is hard to describe for me. It is not a really dark story. The actor talked about it being a comedy in away. But I really don’t see it. I don’t share humor I think, because I can’t remember that I laughed at this story. So it is something between everything. I don’t think it is a bad story. Actually I like it. I just don’t see what is funny about it. Also I feel with my Hex. We got glimpses of what he feels for a special someone who doesn’t seem to see him that way. I love my babies.
